Did you know that a normal body is alkaline? Yes, a normal body
state is alkaline. It only became acidic thru the food we eat (junk foods, fast
foods, softdrinks, etc.) especially nowadays that we are living in a fast phase
modern life. Having an acidic body will makes us prone to illnesses including
cancer.
According to Dr. Otto Warberg (1931 Nobel
Prize winner for cancer discovery):“Disease
cannot live in an alkaline body. No disease, including cancer, can exist in an
alkaline environment.”
Why?
Here
are some of the typical answers:
Alkaline
body actually contains lots of antioxidants that blocks free radicals. When
free radicals out-numbered the antioxidants, they can cause cell mutation and
can lead to cancer.
Alkaline
body contains saturated amount of oxygen. Since alkaline substances can easily
give up electrons, it will react to free radicals resulting to production of
oxygen. Most illnesses including cancer cannot live in an oxygen-saturated
environment.
With lots of antioxidants in our body, our immune system will become
stronger and can fght diseases. Just what I mentioned above, normal body state
is alkaline.
Having an alkaline body system can actually detoxify itself. It can
remove acidic wastes and prevents accumulation of toxins in our body.
How do can we make our body alkaline?
One of the easiest ways to make your body alkaline is to eat
lots of raw fruits (except mangoes and pineapples) and vegetables especially
the green-leafy ones. Raw fruits and vegetables contains natural nutriets,
amino acids, enzymes vitamins and minerals. This is one of the reason why
Healing Galing’s detox protocol includes lots of raw green-leafy vegetables.
Of course, avoid acidic foods. Mangoes and pineapples are
actually acidic in nature even when ripe. Sinigang
and other foods containing vinegar must be avoided. I am not saying you
should totally avoid such food but you must take them in moderation.
But the easiest and considered to be cheapest is to drink lots of alkaline water. The next
question is where to find alkaline water? Some water-refilling stations offer
this but with a higher price compared to regular distilled or purified water.
If you cannot find a water-refilling station, you can actually do it at your
home. I will make a separate post on this.
Now, at home, we are actually doing some steps to alkalize
our body by eating more fruits and vegetables, less meat, and take alkaline
water.
Good day and stay healthy!
